Pickford joins Premier League clean sheet 100 club

Jordan Pickford has become just the 19th goalkeeper to achieve 100 or more clean sheets in the Premier League. This milestone was celebrated as Everton secured a 0-0 draw against Tottenham on Saturday. Petr Cech holds the record for the most clean sheets, with an impressive 202, followed closely by David James at 169. The Czech goalkeeper also boasts the highest percentage of clean sheets per games played and has the most consecutive clean sheets.

Pickford was the quickest to reach the 100 mark among goalkeepers, with Liverpool's Alisson being the last to join the club, achieving his milestone in a 0-0 draw with Leeds on January 1, 2026. Nick Pope of Newcastle is next in line to join the 100 club, currently sitting at 80 clean sheets but hasn't played this season due to losing his starting position to Lukas Hornicek.

Lukasz Fabianski, a former West Ham goalkeeper, came closest to the 100 mark with 92 clean sheets but retired due to injury. To be credited with a clean sheet, a goalkeeper must play the full match. David James leads the list with 169 clean sheets across multiple clubs, followed by Mark Schwarzer with 151, David Seaman with 140, Nigel Martyn with 137, Brad Friedel with 132, Tim Howard with 132, Edwin van der Sar with 132, Peter Schmeichel with 128, Joe Hart with 127, and Shay Given with 113.
